All rates come from the City of Eugene, which runs the airport, and carry the note "New rates as of 4/1/2025." Every lot gives the first 30 minutes free. Rates change when the City sets new ones, so check the Airport Parking page before a long trip.
The City's parking calculator shows how a stay is billed. Each full 24-hour period from your entry time costs the daily rate. Any leftover hours are billed at the hourly rate, up to the daily rate. At the Economy Lot, 6 started hours cost $12, and from the 7th hour the $13 daily rate applies. A week plus 2 hours comes to $95.
Over a week, the Economy Lot saves $42 against Long Term and $105 against Short Term. A lost ticket at the Economy Lot is charged $13.00. The City's pages list no coupons or promo codes.
How do you get from the Economy Lot to the Eugene Airport terminal?
You walk. The City of Eugene says the Economy Lot is about 0.25 miles from the terminal, a 10 to 15 minute walk, and that no shuttle runs to or from the lot. Luggage carts are usually available in the lot.
The City's parking page says to use the crosswalk and sidewalk to reach the terminal building at 28801 Douglas Drive, and its FAQ mentions a covered walkway on the way. Budget the full 15 minutes each way with bags.
Because every space is first come, first served, check the City's live parking status tool before you leave home. It shows each lot as open or full and warns of a 2% margin of error. On September 15, 2026, it showed the Economy, Long Term and Short Term lots all open. If the Economy Lot shows full, the Long Term lot has 1,471 spaces at $19 a day.

What does ParkingAccess data show for the EUG Economy Lot?
There are no ParkingAccess customer reviews for the Economy Lot yet, and ParkingAccess logged no quotes for it from June 17 to September 15, 2026. ParkingAccess cannot book any EUG lot, because the airport takes no parking reservations. Reviews posted on other sites are not repeated here.
So every price, rule and distance on this page comes from the City of Eugene's own parking page, FAQ, live status tool and calculator, all checked on September 15, 2026.
What are the Economy Lot's rules on reservations, oversized vehicles, payment and long stays?
EUG takes no parking reservations, so the Economy Lot is first come, first served. It accepts cash, cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, cannot take vehicles with trailers, and requires City approval for stays over 30 days. Vehicles too big for a standard stall go to the large vehicle section in the Long Term lot.
| Topic | What the City of Eugene publishes |
|---|---|
| Reservations | Not available; all spaces are first come, first served |
| Grace period | First 30 minutes free |
| How time is counted | The calculator bills 24-hour periods from your entry time; the FAQ describes ADA daily charges as running midnight to midnight |
| Payment | Cash, debit cards, American Express, MasterCard, Visa, Apple Pay and Google Pay; cash is taken at the Economy Lot exit |
| Lost ticket | $13.00 at the Economy Lot; press HELP for an attendant |
| Stays over 30 days | Need prior approval from EUG Parking through the City's extended parking request, or the vehicle may be cited and towed |
| Oversized vehicles | Use the large vehicle section in the Long Term lot, and call Ground Transportation at 541-632-2131 |
| Trailers | Not accommodated |
| Keys and valet | Self-park only; no valet service is listed |
| Hours | Lot hours not published; the kiosk help line, 541-632-2131, answers from 6 a.m. to midnight |
| Accessibility | ADA spaces are in the Short Term lot and billed at the $13 Economy rate; disabled veterans and Wounded Warriors with approved credentials park free in Short Term for up to 14 days |
| Frequent parkers | Frequent Flyer Parking Membership lets you enter and exit with an RFID tag or phone app and charges a card on file |
| Lighting and security | The FAQ says all lots are "very well lit"; cameras and patrols are not published |
| Covered parking and EV charging | Not published |
The accessible parking rule matters for anyone with a placard. An ADA space in the Short Term lot costs the same $13 a day as the Economy Lot, which the City bills midnight to midnight for ADA stays. At the exit, press HELP and tell the attendant you have a placard.
Who should park somewhere other than the Economy Lot at EUG?
The Economy Lot fits travelers who can walk 10 to 15 minutes with their bags and want the lowest daily rate at EUG. It is a weaker fit for people with mobility limits, drivers towing a trailer, anyone picking up a passenger, and trips that need a guaranteed space.
| Your situation | Why the Economy Lot may not fit | What to use instead |
|---|---|---|
| You have an ADA placard or limited mobility | No shuttle; the walk is about 0.25 miles each way | ADA spaces in the Short Term lot, billed at $13 a day |
| You are a disabled veteran or Wounded Warrior with approved credentials | You would pay $13 a day here | The Short Term lot, free for up to 14 consecutive days, then $13 a day |
| You are only picking someone up | Parking is charged after the first 30 minutes | The free Cell Phone Waiting Lot on Old Airport Road |
| You are towing a trailer | EUG cannot accommodate vehicles with trailers | Other transportation, as the City advises |
| Your vehicle does not fit a standard stall | Stalls are marked for standard vehicles | The large vehicle section in the Long Term lot, $19 a day |
| You need a space on a busy travel day | No reservations, and the lot has 503 spaces | Check the live status tool, then use Long Term, with 1,471 spaces; see the Eugene Airport parking guide |
| You will be away more than 30 days | Longer stays without approval risk a citation and towing | File the City's extended parking request before you leave |
Can you reserve EUG's Economy Lot, and does ParkingAccess book any EUG parking?
No on both counts. The City of Eugene says parking reservations are not available at this time, so every EUG lot is first come, first served, and ParkingAccess has no bookable lot at the airport. The City's own tools are the way to plan a stay.
Instead of a booking page, the City offers three planning tools, and frequent travelers can apply for a Frequent Flyer Parking Membership to skip tickets at the gate.
- The Airport Parking page on eugene-or.gov lists every lot's rates, payment options and the extended stay request.
- The Airport Live Parking Information tool on coeapps.eugene-or.gov shows whether the Economy Lot is open or full.
- The Airport Parking Calculator on coeapps.eugene-or.gov estimates a stay at all three lots from your entry and exit times.
- The Eugene Airport parking guide on ParkingAccess compares EUG parking options in one place.
